Abstract

AbstractManipulating the active species and improving the structural stabilization of sulfur‐containing catalysts during the OER process remain a tremendous challenge. Herein, we constructed NiO/NiS2and Fe−NiO/NiS2as catalyst models to study the effect of Fe doping. As expected, Fe−NiO/NiS2exhibits a low overpotential of 270 mV at 10 mA cm−2. The accumulation of hydroxyl groups on the surface of materials after Fe doping can promote the formation of highly active NiOOH at a lower OER potential. Moreover, we investigated the level of corrosion of M−S bonds and compared the stability variation of M−S bonds with Fe at different locations. Interestingly, Fe bonded with S in the bulk as the sacrificial agent can alleviate the oxidation corrosion of partial Ni−S bonds and thus endow Fe−NiO/NiS2long‐term durability. This work could motivate the community to focus more on resolving the corrosion of sulfur‐containing materials.
